Flanno facing spell on sidelines

Brendan Rodgers has confirmed Jon Flanagan is facing up to three months on the sidelines with a knee injury.

The 20-year-old sustained the problem during Monday's U21s victory over Southampton at the Academy.

Flanagan's injury is the Reds' only fresh concern ahead of Saturday's visit of Norwich City.

Rodgers told his pre-match press conference at Melwood: "There is nothing new to report. Jose Enrique is making good progress, but the only unfortunate thing is young Jon Flanagan got injured in the reserve game during the week.

"Even though Jon hasn't featured so much, he's been in some of our Europa League games and played in the FA Cup.
